Easy Green Smoothie Formula

Green smoothies are, in my humble opinion, one of the best things ever invented. If you're like me and a) hate vegetables and b) have trouble getting enough protein in your diet, you might want to consider green smoothies.

You can drink the whole thing, or split it with someone (which is what I do).

If you need some inspiration, here are some of the combinations I use most frequently:
